What spare parts to keep in stock?

[C_R_Slacker]

So this year I've decided to make a commitment to stocking up on spare parts for various guns. I'm not talking full blown doomsday prepper scenarios, but I do want to stock up before any election/political hysteria sets in and stuff gets scarce or laws and regulations change. What kinds of parts would it be wise to have backups of?

For the following guns:
Glock 19
HK vp9
Dan Wesson Valor
AR 15
AR 10
Tikka t3
Ruger 10-22
Savage mkII
AK-47

Mags for sure as those are the worst to find during hysteria. It depends how detailed you strip your guns, but if you do complete break downs, then small easily lost springs and pins, especially AR detent parts. Depending how much you shoot, a spare barrel. Also consumables such as springs, extractors... for an AR you can get a easily lost parts kit and that is handy. AK possibly a return spring.

Mags for sure. I'm pretty good on those. I have a few extra detents/springs for AR's, but i should get more. I guess I'm more worried about parts that wear out and need replacing over time. I just have no clue how often those parts need changing or how many to have on hand.

Glocks are ridiculously reliable. Only thing with them I'd recommend is mags, recoil springs and at least one extractor. I'm an armorer and 99% of any issues encountered those three things will take care of.
